Save the date - Saturday 6th June 2015 - Celebrity Tennis Charity Event
Ian and Julie will be organising another celebrity tennis event on 6th June 2015. This year, we will again be raising money for The Elena Baltacha Tennis Foundation and also for a local Alzheimer's charity, http://www.playlistforlife.org.uk.
Playlist for Life was founded by Sally Magnusson who will come along to speak about the work it does connecting people, memories and music. Facing each other on the court will be Kaye Adams, Judith Ralston, Sanjeev Kohli, Dougie Vipond and Alison Walker with other names to be confirmed.
Because music is central to this charity, we will be extending our event this year to include some musical entertainment also. 
Last year , we raised over £10,000 for the EBTF and MacMillan Cancer Care. Both were extremely grateful for our donations and assure us they have put the money to good use. . This was the first such event Western had organised and it felt great to be able to contribute to two such worthy causes. There were also great benefits for the club. Although it was a huge undertaking, it gave us a wonderful opportunity to connect with the local community and to bring club members together.
On that note, if you would like to help, please email juliegtennis@gmail.com. We need help on the day but also in the lead up to organise prizes, raffles, auctions, social media, ticketing etc etc. It would be great to hear from you even if you only have a couple of hours to spare! We are also looking for event sponsors to cover costs like hire of the stand. Again contact juliegtennis@gmail if you're interested in getting involved.

Gym Revamp


Gym Revamp -See photo below

Just about all the new equipment is now in place for the upstairs part of the gym which looks amazing! We are just missing a few tiles and the TRX bands which will all be in place shortly.

Any member interested in learning how to use the new equipment could come along to a free session with Mark next Wednesday evening from 7-8pm or the following Wednesday at the same time. If unable to attend either of those evenings just arrange to see Mark at a time that suits.

Tennis Singles Mini Leagues

Dear Member

Start of a new year and I thought might be an idea to ask everyone on the full membership email list who would like to continue (or start ) in tennis singles mini leagues?

Matches generally consist of a one set match played in a round robin league basis (over a 4-6 week period) and are open to all standards in the club from social players up to 1st team players. It would be great to get some of the club's top players involved.

Just reply with a "yes" to singles  and a contact tel. no to make sure I have the correct details.If not a team player and new to leagues please give me an idea of your standard

Thanks


Ian
